Verse 1
Glory, glory everlasting,
Be to Him who bore the Cross,
Who redeemed our souls by tasting
Death, the death deserved by us!
Spread His glory,
Who redeemed His people thus.
Verse 2
His is love, 'tis love unbounded,
Without measure, without end;
Human thought is here confounded,
'Tis too vast to comprehend!
Praise the Saviour!
Magnify the sinner's Friend.
Verse 3
While we hear the wondrous story
Of the Saviour's Cross and shame,
Sing we, Everlasting glory
Be to God and to the Lamb!
Hallelujah!
Give ye glory to His name.
